Patient safety

At UCHealth Pikes Peak Regional Hospital, our goal is to help patients have a safe and positive hospital experience. We’ve put many safety measures in place to reduce falls, allergic reactions, infections, equipment malfunctions and medication errors. Still, there are some risks possible with any visit to a hospital. We believe that when patients and hospitals work together, we can lower the risk of accidents and improve the safety for all involved.

Research shows that patients who are more involved with their care tend to get better results. Communication with your health care providers is extremely important. Make sure you understand all aspects of your care, including tests, procedures, medications and other instructions regarding your medical condition. Speak up if you have questions and expect answers you can understand. You have the right to be well informed about the care you are receiving.

Here are some topics you should discuss with your health care providers to help make your hospital stay as safe as possible:

If you have allergies to certain medications, be sure to tell your doctors and nurses and ask for that information to be documented in your medical records.

Ask all questions you have pertaining to medications that are prescribed for you. Make sure you understand what the medication is for, the dosage, directions for use, refills, storage, expiration, and what to do about missed dosages. Discuss any side effects or warnings associated with the use of the medication and what to do if you experience side effects.

If your doctor orders treatment or tests during your hospital stay, a member of your healthcare team will describe what you should expect during the procedure. You should discuss questions or any concerns you might have and ask for any information that makes you feel the most comfortable and confident about the care you are receiving.

Make sure you are clear about any instructions you are given when leaving for home, including recommended or limited activities, scheduling follow-up appointments and what medications you need to take.

Advance directives

An advance medical directive is a form that lets you plan ahead for the care you’d want if you could no longer express your wishes. This statement outlines the medical treatment you’d want or names the person you’d wish to make health care decisions for you. Be aware that laws vary from state to state, and it may be worthwhile to talk with an attorney.

Writing down your wishes

An advance directive is important whether you’re young or old. Injury or illness can strike at any age.

Decide what is important to you and the kind of treatment you’d want, or not want to have.

Some states allow only one kind of advance directive. Some states put both kinds on the same form.

Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care

This form lets you name someone else to be your agent.

This person can decide on treatment for you only when you can’t speak for yourself.

You do not need to be at the end of your life. He or she could speak for you if you were in a coma but were likely to recover.

A Living Will

This form lets you list the care you want at the end of your life.

A living will applies only if you won’t live without medical treatment. It would apply if you had advanced cancer, a massive stroke, or other serious illness from which you will not recover.

It takes effect only when you can no longer express your wishes yourself.
